No, that's you're rationalizing on the uneven bars. They aren't able to marry within a 100 miles, why? Because they are gay.
So that makes discrimination against them okay?
No. Societal norms were and are such which didn't see homosexual marriage as a right. It had to be recognized as such. Your thinking stems from the faulty logic that society must conform to outlier rather than the outlier conforming with society.
No, it stems from the the fact that the genders must be equal under the law, and any prohibition on same-sex marriage is gender discrimination. Gender discrimination violates decades of American jurisprudence -- so outlier my ass.
